So I got them home and went through each one individually and pulled all the stars, minor stars, rookies, etc . Threw away so much junk wax bullshit that I filled up a recycle bin of nothing but bent and torn nobodies. Still had about 50K cards after getting rid of many more and gave all but just a few to my son after that. It's all his shit to move around now. 
Definitely brought back the memories going through them again though. More so of how much my mother is a saint for buying me so many packs of cards when I was kid. |
Holy shit that's a lot.
I
might have ~10k... I think one of those large 4 column boxes holds like 4-5k, plus several more sleeves and several binders. Fortunately doesn't take up a ton of space, which is pretty much why I keep them around.
